How delicious a phrase to come from a member of a Ministry whose Alpha and Omega have been "Selff" with a capital "S"! It was self-abnegation, no doubt, which prompted the. Minister! 4 for Dairy Herds to promise the Taranaki milkers almost everything under the sun if they would only give him their votes. Yes, self-abnegation is a fine thing—for the other fellow!
